Abstract

Characterization of porous silicon was performed by means of positron annihilation. Three components of the positron lifetime were observed, one of which was extremely long. The Doppler-broadened spectrum was sharp compared with that of crystal silicon, and became even narrower in an applied magnetic field. These results show that the porous structure is the cause of positronium formation in porous silicon
